Definitely massively overpriced. But an interesting idea nonetheless!

Any chance of a metal version from Chris? 'Build Your Own Revo' perhaps? :lol:

ponoko isn't a mass production house for puzzles, it is a diy place.
70 isn't out of the question for the amount of laser time that puzzle would require to produce, plus the material (plus the cut for the designer).

that being said, it is too much for me...

This one is huge, 24 cm long. See the obsession Revo for size comparison.

I found someone selling some Rota-maze's on ebay, they look pretty much the same as the Dool 'o rinth... I assume just the same thing under a different name. LINK
(they also seem to be selling some interesting twisty/Rubik's puzzles)


Oh, and if you have some spare cash that's burning a hole in you're pocket then check this out: Louis Vuitton Burr
